It can be roughly divided into six topographical areas: North Zhejiang Plain, West Zhejiang Hilly Area, East Zhejiang Hilly Area, Middle Jinqu Basin, South Zhejiang Mountainous Area, Southeast Coastal Plain and Coastal Islands.

The alluvial plain with dense water networks in northern Zhejiang, the coastal hills in eastern Zhejiang, the mountainous areas in southern Zhejiang, and the island landform in Zhoushan can be described as mountains, rivers, lakes and seas. In the southwest, there are many mountains with a distance of more than 1000 meters, among which Huangmaojian Peak in Longquan is the highest mountain in Zhejiang Province, with an altitude of 1.929 meters.
